In a further sign of rising tensions, Israel signaled it is widening its military campaign. The military said it is sending troop reinforcements to the Gaza border and the defense minister ordered the mobilization of 5,000 reserve soldiers. The overnight rockets and airstrikes were preceded by hours of clashes between Palestinians and Israeli security forces, including dramatic confrontations at Jerusalem's Al-Aqsa Mosque compound, a sacred site to both Jews and Muslims. In fighting in the contested city and across the West Bank, more than 700 Palestinians were hurt, including nearly 500 who were treated at hospitals.
The current round of violence in Jerusalem coincided with the start of the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan in mid-April. Critics say heavy-handed police measures helped stoke nightly unrest, including a decision to temporarily seal off a popular gathering spot where Palestinian residents would meet after evening prayers. Another flashpoint was the Jerusalem neighborhood of Sheikh Jarrah, where dozens of Palestinians are under treat of eviction by Jewish settlers.
On Monday evening, Hamas began firing rockets from Gaza, setting off air raid sirens as far as Jerusalem, after giving Israel a deadline to withdraw Israeli security forces from the compound. From there on, the escalation was rapid. Conricus said the military hit 130 targets in Gaza, including the high-rise home of a Hamas field commander and two tunnels militants were digging under the border with Israel. In all, Israel killed 15 militants, Conricus said. He said Israel's new system of concrete barriers and electronic sensors, intended to thwart tunnel digging, has proven effective.
Violence begets violence. This struggle will never end until all peoples in this region are treated with decency and respect.

See how the world is becoming very unstable? This wasn't going on during trump administration
US taxpayer dollars at work protecting the terrorists
While the ongoing conflict is tragic, and we all hope that it will end someday, I think it's important to ask other nations (particularly the U.S.) to stop getting involved and taking sides in someone else's wars.
This is nuts! Wish all safety.

When will fights stops between Israel and Palestine. Pls resolve issues and don't kill innocent children. 🙏🙏
At least Jews have iron dome sheet. Funded by the American dollars. Palestinians have no protection from Israeli war crimes.
Why don’t you report the other part of the story of Israel destroying children in their houses with bombs thrown from their airstrips. You are presenting the mere harmless retaliation of the oppressed Palestinians from Gaza.
İsrail yine Silah denemesi yapıyor. Çocukları öldürerek.
Its interesting you didn't cover this event from the very beginning which shows Israel as the aggressor in this latest conflict.
Why not showing other side. Israeli killed women children. Coward
And Israel the terrorist state murdered 25 people including 9 children. ICC4Israel GazaUnderAttack
